On each Vesting Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and those contained in this Agreement, the Company shall issue to Participant the number of shares of Series E Common Stock determined by dividing (i) by (ii), where (i) is the dollar amount of the portion of the Total Dollar Value of the Award vesting on such date (pursuant to the schedule above), and (ii) is the Fair Market Value of a share of the Series E Common Stock on such Vesting Date.

 

(b)        As a condition to the issuance of the Deferred Restricted Shares on a Vesting Date, if Participant is not already a party to such agreements, Participant must before such Vesting Date become a party to (i) the Stockholders’ Agreement (ii) the Series E Voting Trust Agreement and (iii) the Rollover Holders Agreement.  The Stockholders’ Agreement contains certain Transfer restrictions, drag-along rights and share redemption and repurchase provisions applicable to the Deferred Restricted Shares after they have been issued pursuant to this Agreement (“Restricted Shares”).  Pursuant to the Series E Voting Trust Agreement, Participant will deposit all of his or her Restricted Shares into a voting trust and, although the Restricted

Shares are not entitled to vote, except as required by law and except with respect to the election of directors and then only to the extent Series A common stock and Series B common stock has been redeemed, and do not have the right to consent to any amendment or waiver of the Stockholders’ Agreement, the voting trustees thereunder will be able to vote all of the Restricted Shares on the limited matters (if any) on which Participant may be entitled to vote or consent.  Attached hereto as Exhibit “D” is a summary of the restrictions, rights and provisions applicable to the Restricted Shares under the Stockholders’ Agreement and Series E Voting Trust Agreement.

 

(c)        In no event shall Participant have any further right to issuance of any additional Deferred Restricted Shares following Participant’s Termination of Employment as hereinafter defined; provided, however, that, if shares of Series E Common Stock have not been issued to Participant with respect to the Total Dollar Value of the Award at the time of Participant’s death, the Company shall issue to Participant the number of shares of Series E Common Stock determined by dividing (i) by (ii), where (i) is the dollar amount equal to one-third (1/3) of the Total Value of the Award, and (ii) is the Fair Market Value of a share of Series E Common Stock on the date of Participant’s death.  In addition, if on any scheduled Vesting Date, the Employee is “on probation” or is otherwise not in good standing with the Employer, as evidenced by the Employee’s personnel files, the Deferred Restricted Shares shall not be issued, unless and until the Employee satisfies his or her conditions of probation or the Employee’s status returns to satisfactory.

 

For purposes of this Agreement “Termination of Employment” shall mean the time when the employee-employer relationship between Participant and the Company, ORIX LP or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries is terminated for any reason, with or without cause, including, but not by way of limitation, a termination by resignation, discharge, death, disability or retirement; but excluding terminations where there is a simultaneous reemployment or continuing employment of Participant by the Company, ORIX LP (when it is anticipated that the Participant’s services as an Employee of ORIX LP will be provided primarily to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a “Termination of Employment” shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Employee gives or is given notice of termination, even if the Employee is entitled to gardening leave or the Employee’s last day in the office or last day on payroll occurs on a later date.  The Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine the effect of all matters and questions relating to Termination of Employment, including, but not by way of limitation, all questions regarding the nature and reasons for a Termination of Employment, and all questions of whether particular leaves of absence constitute a Termination of Employment.

 

(d)       The Restricted Shares will be issued in uncertificated form, with the Restricted Shares recorded in Participant’s name (or the name of any relevant Qualified Living Trust, as defined in the Stockholders’ Agreement) in the books and records of the Company (or its transfer agent).  Participant hereby waives any right to request from the Company a certificate representing his or her Restricted Shares registered in certificate form.

 

(e)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Deferred Restricted Shares (prior to issuance as Restricted Shares), or any interest or right therein or part thereof, shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of Participant or his or her successors in interest or
